Title:Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) data acquired over an subtropical forest area of the UFSM campus Frederico Westphalen, at July 7, 2017, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
Data description:
The data were acquired from an aerial survey conducted with an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV, also Drone) covering an forest area of the Federal University of Santa Maria – UFSM in the municipality of Frederico Westphalen, in the Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil (Figure 1). The climate of the region is subtropical (Cfa in the Köppen-Geiger classification) with an average annual temperature of 18 °C and annual precipitation of 1919 mm (Alvares et al., 2013). The rainfall is well distributed throughout the year.
